sion are certainly vulnerable to Goyish assimilative
cultural influences.
What can the Zionists do to maintain cultural con-
tinuity in America? What can all the other Jewish
agencies; religious, educational and social do to but-
tress American Jews against the invasion of non-Jewish
culture which is on the offensive all the year round?
Mr. Bialik may well say that these Jews who work in
the word and sound of America do not interest him for
he is returning to Palestine, but can the American Jew
isolate himself and refuse to traffic in American litera-
ture, drama, poetry and music, whether written by
Jews or non-Jews? We say, hardly.

Will the culture radiating from Palestine pene-
trate to our shores and to those other parts of the world

where non-Jewish cultures are authentic and fascinat-
ing?
Bialik and his co-workers appreciate the problem
in all its ramifications. What they will be all to do is
yet another matter.

Zionism and Jewish Culture.

Chaim Nachman Bialik was interviewed while at-
tending the Twenty-Ninth Annual Convention of the
Zionist Organization at Buffalo by Lawrence Lipton,
special writer of The Detroit Jewish Chronicle on the
question, "What Are the Arts That Constitute the Cul-
tural Renaissance Brought About by Zionism?"
Due to the heated Yiddish-Hebrew controversy it
was of no little interest to note that Mr. Bialik included
the works of writers, poets and journalists who write
in Yiddish as well as those who employ Hebrew. His
praise of the Yiddishist artist was just as fulsome and
unstinting as of those who use the more ancient idiom.
When asked about Ben Hecht, Louis Untermyer,
Joseph Auslander, Maxwell Bodenheim, Waldo Frank
and other Jews who write in English, he replied : "It
is not necessary that I should be acquainted with
them." This latter reaction is significant.
No one doubts the intense interest and desire of
Mr. Bialik to perpetuate the Hebrew and Jewish cul-
ture of the past and to create a virile, dynamic, au-
thentic, modern Jewish culture.
In this interview, two outstanding facts are revealed
and each is of supreme importance in appraising those
factors which shall enable Jewish culture to survive.
He makes little distinction between Jewish and He-
brew literature, poetry, drama and fiction. In this re-
gard, we think he is wholly correct, for despite the oft
repeated cry of Dispersion since the fall of Jerusalem
in 70 of the Christian Era, yet there has been a continu-
ity of Jewish life with a cohesiveness and individuality
that marked it off from all other cultures. From the
Ghetto of Alexandria to the Ghetto of Vilna the Jew
has retained a distinctive character, which distin-
guished him from the alien groups with whom he lived.
Although Hebrew was the language of Palestine be-
fore the dispersion and continued for centuries there-
after, yet the Yiddish, basically a vulgarization of Ger-
man, with the words borrowed from all the languages
where the Jew has lived, is still a product of Jewish
life. If language purists and classicists despise it, it
had notwithstanding served its purpose when all the
Yiddishist literateurs, poets and dramatists found it
an adequate medium for the expression of their art.
As long as the Jew is able to create a language, even
though the materials are borrowed, out of which he
makes a literature with an unmistakable mark which
separates it from any other language and literature,
the complaint of dispersion is geographical, not cul-
tural. It is small wonder, then, that Bialik claimed the
Yiddishists in America as cultural brothers, and felt
not the slightest interesbin those who did their work in
English, even though the English products are superior.
It is of little consequence whether many of the inter-
national, non-religious, Yiddishist artists are the spirit-
ual children of modern Zionism, but it can hardly be
denied that they are the product of a Jewish milieu.
The walls of the Ghetto, with its Yiddish cultural back-
grounds, scarcely touched by the secular or alien cur-
rents of the surrounding world, made it possible for
the Jew to fashion a new language and, with this in-
strument to create the arts.
The history of the Jew in France, Italy and Sweden,
and more recently in Germany, gives us a clue•to the
destructive effects of these cultures upon the Jew. We
hazard a guess that if Mr. Bialik were asked by a
Frenchman, German or Swede what he thought of the
Jewish writers who wrote in the language of their re-
spective countries, he would have received the same
answer as (lid Mr. Lipton. It is hardly a perversion of
Mr. Bialik's statement to say that American, French,
Italian and Swedish Jews writing in any language other
than Hebrew or Yiddish are consequently not contribu-
ting anything to the virility or perpetuation of Jewish
culture.
The Zionists realize that the Ghettos of Europe are
breaking up and even though they may be transplanted
to America or the plains of the Crimea and the Ukraine,
yet it is but a matter of time when the non-Jewish in-
fluence will become so powerful that it may swamp
and obliterate the Jewish.
The Zionists are realistic enough to know that the
assimilative influences of Western civilization are pow-
erful and pervasive. They cannot dismiss them with
a gesture as an inferior culture which cannot appeal to
the Jew, for they know from the history of the last
century that this is not so.
Even though the Jews may be an inconsequential
minority in Palestine, if the cement which holds them
together is a common language and culture, there is
slight danger that the backward culture of the Arab
will have any appreciable effect upon them. The Eng-
lish colonies in India or China have maintained their
cultural identity despite numerical insignificance and
will continue to do so as long as they consider Indian
and Chinese culture, backward, inferior and alien.
The Diaspora is now a fact culturally as well as geo-
graphically. Zionists are making valiant efforts to end
the geographic dispersions, for they feel that cultural
dispersion is impossible in Palestine. Ii„-rs implicit in
the credo of Zionism that cultural surfival is unques
tionable if only enough Jews can be settled in the
Homeland. As long as Arab culture is on a low
plane, there is as little danger from that quarter as
there was from the illiterate Russian, Polish or Gali-
cian peasantry.
It is generally admitted by all Zionists that Pales-
tine cannot hold more than a part of the Jews of the
world. This being the case, the Zionists are faced with
a formidable problem, which they do not minimize,
least of all Bialik. The Jews in the geographic disper-

Loyalty.

William Friedman, Detroit lawyer, in an interview
which appeared in The Detroit Jewish Chronicle, de-
scribed a form of loyalty which he found among Jews.
He said in speaking of the Greeson murder case recent-
ly affirmed by the Supreme Court of Michigan: "This,
by the way, calls to mind a characteristic attitude of
Jews toward law breakers of their own race. The mo-
ment they hear of any Jew who is accused of a crime,
they rush to his rescue. No matter how revolting the
crime or how certain the guilt, they rush to his defense.
They collect funds and rally around the offender as if
he were a martyr in the hands of some ruthless tyrant."
This attitude of loyalty indicates clearly that the
Jew as yet feels that he must be better than his neigh-

bor. If he felt that he were the equal of the Gentile,
he would accept the fact of criminality and proceed to
discover causes and apply remedies if there were any.
Instead he proceeds to defend, hoping thereby to prove
that no offense was committed. It is not a question
whether a man should be defended; that question of
legal ethics and practice has been decided in the affirm-
ative long ago. But the method of defense is yet an-
-
other thing.
Crime can never be eradicated by maudlin senti-
mentality or unreasoning loyalty. As long as these at-
titudes predominate, the Jew will not examine the de-
linquent or the offense objectively with a view of ascer-
taining the reasons and results.
If the Jew shdws a marked group loyalty, it is be-
cause the non-Jewish world has made every individual

of the group feel responsible for every crime committed
by any member of the race. The Jew has answered by
an exaggerated loyalty to the accused, thereby creating
a vicious circle of charges and countercharges, of in-
crimination and recrimination. The Gentile says all
Jews stick together no matter what offense was corn-
mitted and the Jew answers you hold us responsible
when we had nothing to do with it.
The Jew of Europe lived in a singularly troubled
world, where he was ever on the defensive. His habit
of mind and spontaneous reactions were not calculated
to give him a scientific attitude. He was practically al-
ways an interested party even when he was not person-
ally involved, inasmuch as the close knit community of
the ghetto hardly permitted of separate and individual
thought and action.
Acute observers of ghetto Jewry have noted the
fact that speech and even shrug and gesture were com-
mon to whole communities.
Conditions in Amerina are not by any means like
those which obtained in Europe. We should begin to
temper our group loyalties. We need not lean back-
ward to show our fairness, but we certainly can make

some effort to acquire a most scientific approach.
We think that the objective attitude should be more

in evidence in those questions which are peculiarly
Jewish and do not touch the non-Jewish world. Loyal-
ty carried to the point of fanaticism and bigotry in in-
ter-Jewish questions can be excused only on the ground
that the individual has become so hard bitten by the
credo of loyalty that he is incapable of a fair judgment.
If this attitude of mind were not responsible for much
unhappiness, it would have but an academic interest,
but there are questions which touch the people so in-
timately that the absence ofclear, sober thinking and
objective criticism does irreparable damage.
American Jewry is faced at present with many ser-
ious problems which involve the lives and fortunes of
many of their brothers overseas. Let these problems
be met with as much understanding and sincerity as
possible, never forgetting that human life is tie main
consideration.

More and Better Fascism.

Benito Mussolini has decided that Italy shall have
no municipal elections this year. This decree followed
close upon the heels of the order that all newspapers
must be standardized and that none shall exceed six
pages in size, with all persimal journalism excluded.
We are assured in grandiloquent pronouncements that
all this is being done for the good of Italy and particu-
larly to correct an adverse balance of trade amounting
to 8,000,000,000 lire.
It seems to us it was just yesterday that all this
denial of freedom and distrust in democracy was neces-
sary in order that the soul of Italy be recreated.
If the impassioned, impressionistic eloquence of
Mussolini was not sufficient, a punitive expedition with
castor oil as lubricant made the illuded see the error
of their ways.
American reactionaries could scarcely approve the
dictatorship for the clumsy reasons given by the Fas-
cisti, but yet they found a happy, economically sound
Italy had emerged under the beneficent rule of Mus-
solini, and for this reason they had nothing but praise
for Fascist absolutism. It appears that all the alleged
industrial health and business soundness was bunk.
Figures can be juggled, defalcations and deficits cov-
ered, but there is a day of reckoning. Now Mussolini
is faced with it and in characteristic fashion he imposes
more and better restrictions. Ilow could one expect
this maniacal egoist to admit that he made a mistake.
If the financial and industrial health of Italy is not what
it should be, then it is only because there still remain
some vestiges of freedom in the form of personal jour-
nalism, and the holding of municipal elections.
As long as his stock in trade was chauvinist ho-
kum, he was able to rule, but the inexorable economic
pressure now operating may bring his downfall. It
cannot happen too soon.
